Classy post

IIRC, he is part of the Lamar Jackson legal defense team.

The game was entertaining, but if you're a fan of the Raiders and happen to have, say, Henry Ruggs on your fantasy team and Bryan Edwards previously, Waller being targeted 19 ####### times will drive you nuts.

19! That's a Paul Hardcastle song, not a reasonable target share.

Nineteen! N-n-n-n-n-nineteen!

Some of the logistically boneheaded stuff they do is just maddening as a football fan. They're undisciplined and strangely coached. That sequence at the end where they're out of timeouts but he sends the kicking unit on to give up five yards on a delay?

####ty coaching by anybody, but Gruden gets a pass. It's a bit maddening. That's why all of us sound like haters are in here. In general, stupid football costs games, and we know how damn hard the players work to not have games being cost by boneheaded #### by guys that should know better. I used to love the Raiders and their sort of maverick ways. That wore out in the nineties with me. The aughts were a return to a disciplined, tough team, culminating in Super Bowl runs.

What's out there now doesn't approach that, really. It's a weird mix of potency and idiocracy. It's just dangerous enough to be good but not ascendant.

Who knows? Maybe I'm just a fuddydud.

Nice win tonight. Hard fought.
 

Awful coaching by Gruden, he gets a pass? Ummm no 

Bunch of miserable little *****s in this thread.

37 seconds left and no timeouts….why would the ravens kick it out of the end zone.

a little pooch kick to like the 10 and the Raiders have to return it and kill another 5 seconds.  The Raiders needed every second.  So dumb…

I thought the same thing and was happy to see it go out of the end zone.

When you blame the QB for fumbling when he's hit by the time he finishes dropping back and planting to throw...that's when you know there's idiots on here that don't know crap about football.

Please do better. Make an opinion and back up why you think what you think. Do not call other posters here idiots. Thanks.

You're right, I think most of us just needed a good night's rest after having three hours of taco, beer & Raider induced dyspepsia.

Nice to see the defense step up big, after Ty'son run for a 34 yard TD on 4th and 1 I thought we were seeing the same old Raiders. But the defense really came together as the game progressed and were downright dominating at points of the 4th & OT.

After the heartbreak of the Edwards non-TD followed by, Leatherwood's false start and eventually the pick in the end zone, again I thought "same old Raiders".

But the D stepped up yet again and Carr made another big time 30+ yard pass to clinch it. 

It was frustrating, ugly at times and also sublime and beautiful.

Nice win against a playoff contender. 

It doesn't get any easier next week but this may not be the same Raider team we are used to.

I LITERALLY backed up my opinion with facts.  It's not the QB's fault when they fumble when they are hit when they finish their dropback.  That fumble is on the offensive line or the RB in pass protection.  I also never called a specific poster an idiot.
